Jeremy H. Ray, 27, of Chicago was shot to death on June 10, 2016 after an altercation during a dice game in the South Chicago neighborhood. Court records and the Cook County medical examiner’s office say Ray and Shaqir Mustapha argued during the game; Ray reportedly pulled a gun and pistol-whipped Mustapha before the fight was broken up and Mustapha left.

Several hours later Mustapha returned to the 8900 block of South Brandon near the Germano Millgate public housing complex. Witnesses say Mustapha approached Ray, asked for change for a $10 bill, then shot Ray multiple times at close range, striking his chest, abdomen, and extremities. Ray was taken to Trinity Hospital and pronounced dead at 10:27 p.m.

Multiple witnesses identified Mustapha as the shooter. A warrant was issued July 1, 2016; investigators located him in Brooklyn Park, Minnesota, and he was taken into custody on August 1, 2016 and returned to Chicago to face first-degree murder charges. Does anyone have information about Ray, where he spent time in South Chicago, or witnesses to the June 10 incident?
